And just like that summer is over, well not quite yet. August 19th and 20th most of our students will return to school. We have a lot planned in the month of August so don’t blink or you might miss something.
The most important thing we will do in August with our student ministry is welcome the new 6th graders. We have many things planned to help transition them to the “big time”.
First, on August 2nd and 9th the new 6th graders will be invited to a brunch at 11:00am. Tim Perdue and our student leadership team will teach a series on preparing for middle school.
Secondly, on August 22nd we will have an awesome Back to School Bash with inflatables, our youth band playing and great food. This will be open to all youth and we really want this to be an opportunity to invite friends who may not otherwise go to church. At the bash we will invite them to come back the next day to Sunday School.
Then on August 23rd we will have promotion Sunday. This will be the day that students move up to their new classes. New 6th graders will promote to their new Sunday School class in the youth room. We will also be adding 2 new youth classes that day as well.
For our current students we will be attending the Youth Evangelism Conference in Norman August 7th and 8th. The cost will be $20 and well worth it as Skillet and Blue Tree will be performing concerts along with great training from Chad Norris.
A busy, but great August ahead! An opportunity to invite new friends to some fun events at church. A chance to welcome the new 6th graders to the student ministry. A time to start school with a goal of sharing the love of Jesus with your friends.
Ministering with you,
